    From The Millionaire@1:103/705 to Digital Man on Saturday, October 05, 2019 13:53:55
    Is it possible for Sbbsecho to notify the same person they have email when they login with their own name because it happened to me today for some reason. It was weird. I was on another BBS at the time.

    SBBSECHO: The Millionaire sent you mail on Vert.

    I’ve never seen this before in my life.

    I already answered this question in the personal email you sent me:

    First, I think you're misremembering/quoting the message. It more likely
    said "The Millionaire sent you EchoMail on <group> <sub-board>". And this is possible because you have posted messages on networked message areas (echoes/conferences) to yourself:

    7050 The Millionaire The Millionaire Music in 2020
    7110 The Millionaire The Millionaire Re: Music in 2020

    Oh I forgot about that.

    Is there a way to write a message without writing to myself without starting a new topic?

    Normally, you can put any name you want in the "To" field, including 'All'. I'm
    not sure if ecWeb4 has some limitation or problem with that. Perhaps if you were more descriptive in the steps that you took and the issue you encountered,
    we'd have some clue about how to solve it.

    When I quote with ECWeb4 there’s no way to make it “All”. It takes the original poster’s name.

    Okay, that should be fixed now.

    Most people here are using non-web methods of posting, so they didn't know of the issue. The likely assumed you were doing that on purpose.

    No I wasn’t. I’m not used to posting this way but find it more convenient though for my own needs.

    That would explain a lot. TM's posting habits make sense in the light of this information.

    That’s why I use it. It’s easier to post messages. I can see the messages all at once instead of going from one message to the next one all the time on the BBS.

    Yes, there are advantages to the web interface. Use what works for you. :)

    That's one reason I wrote my message reader. One of its features is to list messages - The message list is basically a list of the messages that are posted
    and shows the from/to users, subject, and date & time posted, and then you can select which ones to read. It also has a more traditional reader mode (which also includes scrolling ability for ANSI users).
